[SOLVED] CoWaitForMultipleObjects in ppc1.exe
« on: June 06, 2023, 07:46:59 pm »
I tried to download the new trunk version of fpc via fpcupdeluxe and when I run ppc1.exe I get an error that symbol CoWaitForMultipleObjects is unknown, i use Win7 x64 system, compiler no longer supports win7 or what?

I’m a little guilty of insisting that an open array should be used, maybe without that the patch would already be accepted. But I still consider it a good idea, as the open array-based interface is fully compatible with the Delphi interface based on a dynamic array, that’s the reason why open arrays exist after all. (Or the devs could change const HandleObjs: array of THandleObject back to const HandleObjs: THandleObjectArray if they really want to.)

this theme problem is not about open arrays but what rtl\win\systhrd.inc file got patch with Win7 incompatible code (20 may 2023 date)

No, only using them makes them incompatible.

marcov, even empty application is incompatible because it uses “basic events”, and if you use THandleObject.WaitForMultiple, things are even worse as it is completely broken.

Yes, maybe I didn’t say it clearly, but it caused an explosion for me that automatic dynamic linking completely blocks the launch of the compiler on win7.

agree. i don't want to use that functions but AT LEAST we have it in compiler which will not work.
